Does it seem to anyone else that some realtors don't deliver. What I mean is, I have had at least 3 realtors tell me that they were interested in having me stage some homes.

What should I be doing or not doing in order to boost my business? Do I need to back to the realtors offices and drop off flyers which is what I did when I started my business 7 months ago or is there a better way to reach them?
